Finally Going to Happen! 420 Saline Moderate Profile

Littlemamateets
$4,000
I am 32 years old, 5'5", 144 lbs and currently wear a 34 B (though I do have gapping) my bwd is 13. I am getting Natrelle saline moderate profile 390-420 filled to 420, under the muscle, incision in crease of breast.
I have given birth to 1 child (adopted 1 as well) and breast fed for 5 months. I didn't lose a lot of breast tissue after nursing but I did gain about 50lbs after losing my baby weight. Fast forward 5 years and I have just lost about 40 lbs and now my breast are just sad and empty, when I bend over it is even worse! I am finally financially able to have this done and so excited. I was originally scheduled for April 10th but it was rescheduled due to the rona outbreak :/I was originally going to get ideal implants but my surgeon's office recieved an email stating that they are out of stock and didn't give an estimated time that they will be available again. I was tired of waiting and honestly it is about $2,000 cheaper to do regular saline. I was bummed because the warranty isn't as good as ideal but I am so ready to do this! If anyone can inform me on their fill level with saline implants I'm very curious. My surgeon said she likes to over fill by 10% but I told her I really don't want them to feel hard, I want them to be squishy and bouncy. She said we could fill to maximum recommend fill level and be good. I have seen on here that some women get them under filled which in theory sounds like a soft squishy boob, but then you can get rippling and potentially a rupture from rippling. As with almost everyone on here I am second guessing my choice in size. With the ideal it was pretty straightforward, choose the size that fit my bwd and fill to desired size (they don't have different profiles). So now, I'm getting natrelle and with my bwd I can get moderate 390-420 or if I got high profile it would be more like 500cc. I already had the idea of 400cc in my head so I instantly chose moderate, and of course now I'm second guessing everything. It's probably to late to change my mine now but I really want nice round boobs with good cleavage! Sigh, why do women have to be so picky? ;)I have been extremely happy with Dr Mars and all of her staff. Isela has been amazing at navigating through all of the covid stuff and advocating for me to get the test. They have a private surgical suite so since it isn't through a hospital, I was having a heck of a time finding anyone who would do the test. Isela worked her magic and informed me this evening that she found a facility that will do it, yay! This is finally going to happen!

Hey a few things, be glad you didn't go with Ideal. There are lots of ladies who are having problems with them rupturing. They been on backorder for quite awhile which put a few ladies in a sticky situation. If you look up KTR12 you'll see her Ideal ruptured again just after 6-8 months. A lot of ladies explain how weird they feel inside you with the chambers/swishing sound of saline and heard they're firm too. As for mod saline implants they will be firm. Saline is firmer than silicone. They all have silicone shells but feel different. If your looking for a squishy yet bouncy boob with less risk of rippling, I'd suggest silicone. I have 500cc Mentor MemoryGel Mod+. They're slightly wide with a bit projection (see my review). Mod are very wide (which will hopefully help your gapping) with less projection than mod+. You can look up the charts and it will give you all the specs, BWD, cm of projection and so forth. I imagine Naturelle has a 10 yr extended warranty like Mentor for a few hundred dollars. Or you could go with the free warranty too. Some places have extra implants for sx and some PS have to order them. You should post b&a photos so you can look back to see where you started. It's also nice to compare at the end to see how far you've come along. Good luck and keep us updated.

Thank you for the input! I am going to do the 10 year warranty for $200 and I was almost tempted to do silicone but I really don't want to worry about silent rupture or having to get MRI every few year's. All in all I feel pretty confident with my choice, only time will tell if I love the results. I'm going to post some pics now since I'm close to the day, like basically 2 more days! Squuueeee!
